Today's Wall Street Journaltakes a long look at Bernie's niece, Shana Madoff, who worked as a lawyer at the firm and is married to Eric Swanson, a former SEC lawyer, both of whom will be central to the SEC's investigation into why the agency failed to spot warning signs about Bernie Madoff's scheme sooner.

One somewhat more amusing revelation over the weekend is that Bernie's son, Andrew, was served with divorce papers by his wife Deborah on the very same day Bernie was arrested, especially since the Posthas photos of the divorcing couple on a "holiday shopping spree" in Soho yesterday. A lawyer for Andrew Madoff says the split is "very amicable," but we're guessing the situation won't be described as such when angry investors suing the Madoffs hear how Andrew turned over all his assets to his soon-to-be ex-wife as as part of a divorce settlement.
